Step One - Prep

To prep your skin for flawless base makeup, apply the POREfessional Matte Primer with your fingers to blur the look of pores, and control excess oil or shine. The lightweight formula lays down an ultra-smooth, natural-matte base to help prolong makeup wear – not to mention creating a seamless canvas for flawless foundation application!

Step 3 - Conceal

To conceal, tap the Boi-ing Cakeless Concealer across your under-eyes, down the bridge of your nose, below the cheekbones and in-between the eyebrows. This placement can help to lift the look of your makeup, as it highlights the key areas of your face.
